Musk has done this just because he is an expat living in Thailand. In essence he is slandering all men who live in or visit Thailand. I'm not inclined to be forgiving and I hope the guy sues and gets a huge pay off. Just don't accept Tesla shares ?

Where did the NYT ever use the word "luck"?
In the title

Clearly the NYT knows as much about 'luck' as Alanis Morissette knew about 'irony'...

Hmmm, agitate him first then take him down. Not sure which rule book that came from however it worked in its own style. :)
I like the way they allow traffic to filter past him. In UK they'd have closed the roads and probably all public transit inc airports for miles!

In this case a hitman was hired.
That is premeditated murder.
Yes, however your question was in relation to some UK legislation which is why I carefully prefaced my answer with 'in the UK'.

Already made clear on other posts I think the sentence was harsh and if had happened in self defence I would have advocated no sentence at all.
However, hiring a hitman is a premeditated act that should result in some sort of sentence.
Just an example of possible circumstances where bail might be given after a murder conviction as you asked for in your previous post below.

Why do they set a sentencing date before a decision is made as to whether he is guilty or not?

I think the lesson we've all learnt here.

Damn she's hot! And a convicted spouse murderess.
So I have to ask my self 'would I?'.
And the answer is yes which confirms my historically poor taste in women! :) -

We can be bush lawyers all day.
I'll PM you with a response when I receive one.
I'm not being a lawyer. I'm just reading the legislation that you provided and claimed stated that the original sentence must be served. I don't think it says that and so far you haven't pointed out why I'm wrong.

Of course I read it, there isn't much to read in your quote.
No, Australian courts don't often hand out double life sentences, but it is a reference to making what is seen as an inadequate sentence in a foreign country consistent with Australian sentencing, so if a person is sentenced to two years for murder, is repatriated to Australia, the sentence would be upgraded.
A double life sentence, ridiculous in itself, would translate to life in Australia.
I'll email the Attorney General today for clarification.
You really haven't read it at all have you! It in fact states the opposite to your claim (again). It stipulates in 43(1) that any substituted sentence cannot be longer than the original.
In essence when transferring it gives the AG 3 options
1 Enforce the original sentence
2 Substitute the original sentence for a sentence consistent with Australian law for that offence
3 Substitute a different sentence
It does not state, anywhere, as you previously claimed, that 'the prisoner must serve the original sentence'. It states directly that any sentence substituted by the AG must not be 'Harsher, in legal nature or duration' than the original!

You must read AND comprehend. Nowhere does it say "reduce".
Well you can lead a horse to water but...... You haven't read any of it have you?
Australian courts in the habit of handing out double life tariffs for 61 pills are they?
Would you like to point out where it says 'the prisoner must serve the original sentence'?

Not true. Part of the International Prisoner Transfer programme is that the prisoner must serve the original sentence.
Check this link
No it isn't. If you read the legislation that your link refers to you will find that the Int prisoner Transfer prog does not state that. In fact it allows the sentence to be converted to be 'consistent with Australian law'
This is just 1 of many relevant bits worth reading :-
Part 6—Enforcement of sentences
42 Sentence enforcement in Australia
The Attorney‑General may direct that a sentence of imprisonment imposed on a prisoner by a court or tribunal of a transfer country, or on a Tribunal prisoner by a Tribunal, be enforced on transfer of the prisoner to Australia under this Act:
(a) without any adaptation of the duration of the sentence of imprisonment or its legal nature, or with only such adaptations to the duration of the sentence or its legal nature as the Attorney‑General considers are necessary to ensure that enforcement of the sentence is consistent with Australian law (in this Act called the continued enforcement method); or
(b) by substituting a different sentence of imprisonment for that imposed by the transfer country or Tribunal (in this Act called the converted enforcement method).

The black list threat seems pretty horrible if it's just based on their "opinion" about a person. I can see that in case of an arrest and evidence proven. Imagine if it happened to you and it wasn't true especially if you are settled with lots of property here. This kind of hard core tactic should be really troubling to ALL foreigners here, no matter how totally legit you think you are. You might think this isn't about you, but to immigration you're just another SUSPECT, and don't forget that.
Someone settled with lots of property isn't technically a tourist though......

What is a middle aged guy doing with a young teenager?
Technically 19 is an 'old' teenager, in fact the oldest a teenager can be
technically 19 is a teenager
Yes, no argument there, the clue is the 'teen' of nineteen. However my point was that 19 is in fact an old teenager not a young one, in fact the oldest a teenager can be is 19.

Agreed, all the police can tell from spent cases is the size of the spent cases!
There are multiple types of 7.62 ammo, plus an AK47 type rifle can be chambered in many calibres.
